Later, Terra freaked out and almost attacked them...When they were throwing her a "Happy one-year Anniversary of being a Titan" party in the main room.

"Geez le-fleas! If ya don't like parties, ya could've SAID so!" Bat-Mite commented. "No need to go psycho Toph on us!"

"Gee... You guys scared me..." Terra muttered as she tried to calm down.

"We can see that." Kori replied.

"Are these for me?" Terra asked as she stepped forward.

"They sure are!" Gar smiled. "For your one-year anniversary as part of the Titans! It was all Raven's idea."

Terra sniffed. "Nobody's ever done anything like this for me..." she explained. "Thank you..."

"Hey..." Beast Boy put an arm around her shoulder. "Dry those tears, mama, and let's get this party started!"

"Yeah, what HE said!" Todd added.

"Montage time!" Cherry said, seemingly to no one.

"Heck YEAH!" Bat-Mite cheered as the montage began.


Terra and Gar soon shared a picture together. There was then a group picture of everyone altogether. Gar then turned into a monkey, and took a silly face picture while Jaime bit into his cake, but that made Terra laugh. Cherry and Raven glanced over as they were suddenly caught in the spotlight of the camera. And Bat-Mite and Todd proceeded to make goofy faces at the camera. They even did some dancing, everyone seemed to have a very good time today, and the party overall was a success.

"Great party." Atticus smiled as he laid down on the couch.

"Yeah... But still, that lousy racist broad from the café REALLY pissed me off..." Bat-Mite groused. "Eh, I'll just terrorize her in her dreams, Freddy style."

"Fazbear or Kreuger?" Cherry couldn't help but smirk.

"Kreuger, duh! Can NOT go wrong with ol' Robert Englund." Bat-Mite smirked, producing a claw-fingered glove on his left hand.

"Sorry, I couldn't help it," Cherry chuckled. "You want some help getting into her dreams?"

"Sure. Wanna come along? It'll be fu~un! Like a... Revenge date!" Bat-Mite grinned.

"If anyone can walk into one's dreams, it's Cherry," Atticus replied. "...And Princess Luna."

"And apparently Jake Long in that one episode of American Dragon." Cherry then added.

"I should probably watch that episode..." Bat-Mite pondered. "Nevertheless... Revenge date it IS!'

"All right, just follow my lead." Cherry said before taking out what looked like a spell book.

"Oh-kay!" Bat-Mite replied, following behind.

"Hey," Atticus told Bat-Mite. "Be good to Cherry now, or I'll come after you." he then warned like a big brother.

"I promise," Bat-Mite nodded, giving a salute. "I always look out for those I care about."

"All right, just wanna make sure," Atticus said. "She's like a sister to me."

"I understand..." Bat-Mite replied, as Cherry began the spell.

"Altum somnum." Cherry told Bat-Mite.

Bat-Mite's eyes widened and he drifted off suddenly. Cherry then came towards Bat-Mite and then used a spell on herself.


Suddenly, the two were shown to be in a long hallway with several doors on both sides like they were awake.

"So... This is the Dream Zone?" Bat-Mite asked.

"Pretty much, yeah," Cherry replied. "This is also part of my special abilities with imagination and manipulating reality. It's kind of like my own version of magic like how Atticus is a Wiccan."

"Interesting..." Bat-Mite commented. "Now... Time to bring on the FEAR!"

"Shouldn't be too hard to find that wannabe Disney princess's door." Cherry said as she led him down the hallway.

"Ah, yes... Let's go and... Ring the doorbell..." Bat-Mite chuckled darkly.

Cherry had a small eye roll with a smirk, she soon came up to the door and opened it. "All right, in here." she then told him.

"Alright then. Time to terrify!" Bat-Mite laughed evilly as they entered.

"Don't scare her to death, otherwise she'll end up like Kenny." Cherry hid a small chuckle.

"Would that REALLY be so bad?" Bat-Mite shrugged. "Now we need to find a way to ruin her dream..."

"Hmm..." Cherry paused a moment.


They soon came to see Princess Clara's dream which was her in a peaceful meadow like the older Disney Princesses before the 80's as she happily sang to all of them and she looked as happy as happy could be which made Cherry feel queasy.

"This dream tastes like diabetes." Cherry gagged.

Bat-Mite groaned. "This place is so sweet it's giving me cavities. Well, then... Let's make things SOUR!"

"I'll help~..." Cherry smirked as she soon touched a tree to make the theme dark and gloomy to match her likes.

Princess Clara laughed and danced around at first, but the peaceful meadow seemed to change into a creepy and ugly forest like in the forest chase scene in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.

Bat-Mite chuckled evilly. "It begins..."

"What's going on here?" Princess Clara frowned. "This isn't my peaceful meadow. Foxxy must've put an Ancient African spell on me or something."

Bat-Mite stalked through the forest, scraping his claws on the trees. "You really ARE stupid, aren't you?" his voice echoed.

"Who's there?" Princess Clara cried out.

Cherry went behind a tree to watch Bat-Mite first.

Then, as if out of nowhere, Bat-Mite appeared, looking innocent. "Wh... What is this? Where am I?" he asked, playing up the "scared child" act.

"Where did you come from?" Princess Clara asked him.

"I dunno... I just woke up here... But I'm sooo scared!" he whimpered, cowering.

Cherry cupped her mouth with a slight snicker between the interaction.

"Please, I don't know what to do! Muh-my mommy...she died, and I'm all alone...!" Bat-Mite sobbed.

"Oh... I lost my mommy too..." Princess Clara said.

"What Disney princess hasn't?" Cherry whispered to herself.

"But I'm scared! I need guidance! Preferably from someone who randomly sings to animals to summon them somehow..." Bat-Mite continued.

"I always sing to animals, especially with my Bully song." Princess Clara replied.

"And I'm sure that must be FASCINATING..." Bat-Mite snorted.

"Oh, it is," Princess Clara smiled. "Would you like to hear it?"

"Nah." Bat-Mite replied. "But... Why do you hate black people?"

"What?!" Princess Clara asked.

"Well, yeah... Apparently you treat them like dirt. Why?" Bat-Mite asked.

"Well, that's just how I am," Princess Clara replied. "My father told me that black people are meant to be our servants. I mean, when I first met Foxxy, I thought for sure that she had to be the housemaid."

"But that's BAD. It isn't NICE to treat people so rudely," Bat-Mite chided, his tone becoming a bit irritated. "You gotta treat people NICE... Or else they won't like you... And if you're not NICE to people... Then BAD things happen...!"

"I am nice to people, I go to church, you know." Princess Clara defended.

"Yeah, but you STILL treat people like filth!" Bat-Mite continued, growing angrier. "You only go to church because you're trying to feel better about yourself just so you don't feel guilty about the bad things you did!"

"What are you saying, religion is a sham?" Princess Clara replied. "I think there's a special place in Hell for people who think like that."

"I'm saying that just because you go to church DOESN'T MAKE YOU A GOOD PERSON!" Bat-Mite growled. "You can pray all you like, but it won't change the fact that you're racist, and you can go to Hell for THAT!"

"I never liked church much myself." Cherry muttered in the background.

"Besides, why would I wanna spend two hours every Sunday hearing about how I'm going to Hell unless I basically stop doing everything?" Bat-Mite continued. "According to the Bible, we're apparently not even allowed to go to the bathroom. Something that we need to do in order to LIVE."

"Why are you tormenting me when I'm just trying to live my own life?" Princess Clara pouted.

"Because your life is PATHETIC." Bat-Mite explained, as Clara saw mutilated animals lying on the ground, and Cherry appeared, dressed like a genderswapped Freddy Krueger, grinning evilly.

"Oh, looks like I get my time to shine." Cherry said to Bat-Mite.

"What have you done to my animal friends?!" Princess Clara cried out. "This is worse than what my step-mother would do!"

"You thought you could run away to Dreamland to escape your fears," Bat-Mite chuckled darkly. "But you didn't realize that fear exists in the one place that you can NEVER ESCAPE!"

"And... YOU'RE PUNISHED!" Cherry added with a wicked smirk, followed by laughter as lightning flashed and thunder boomed right behind them.

"Oh-ho-ho-yes!" Bat-Mite grinned, taking his monster form and grinning giddily. "This is gonna be FUN!"

Princess Clara soon screamed out of terror and began to run while grabbing her brunette hair, but the dangerous duo just extended their arms to block her from escaping.

"Looks like you're FENCED in!" Bat-Mite smirked.

And then the both of them lunged like a pair of tigers! Princess Clara screamed bloody murder as this was truly an impact of a nightmare.

A few minutes later, the duo left the Dream World, laughing.

"That was really something!" Cherry said to Bat-Mite between laughs like it was the most fun she had in years. "The dead animals and the creepy forest was a brilliant idea!"

"I KNOW, right?" Bat-Mite replied. "That broad's gonna be wetting herself for the rest of her LIFE!"

Cherry soon went to lead him out so that they could go back into the waking world.


In the waking world, their bodies regained consciousness.

"Well, THAT was certainly a good time!" Bat-Mite yawned, stretching.

Cherry rubbed her eyes once she came back to. "It's a living..." she then muttered. "Boy, I feel like a Flintstones character for saying that."

"Eh, ya get used to that." Bat-Mite shrugged.

"Oh, don't I know it?" Cherry replied. "I usually see a married couple in Atticus's dreams. I think they might be his parents."

"Cool!" Bat-Mite nodded. "Talk about prophetic!"

They left the room, and soon learned that the other Titans had left on a mission to find and capture a H.I.V.E scientist to get the secret data he'd worked on.

"Oh, they left without us... Maybe we should catch up?" Cherry wondered.

Bat-Mite thought for a few minutes. "Nah, they're probably alright. But just to be sure, we might as well monitor the mission from here." He proceeds to zap the TV with dimensional energy, causing it to spark, sputter... And then turn on, displaying the mission with incredible picture quality.

"Well... All right..." Cherry replied. "These adventures tend to take a lot out of me. I just hope no one gets hurt... Or worse..." she then said, showing a rare soft spot.

"Same," Bat-Mite nodded, as they sat down on the couch. Apparently in the footage they were watching, the Titans had finished the fight and managed to subdue the scientist. "But wait... Where's Damian? He'd never turn down a chance to kick some ro-butts..."

"Unless... He's getting HIS ass handed to him..." Cherry replied mysteriously.

"Hm... I don't see him anywhere..." Bat-Mite commented. "You don't suppose..."

Cherry narrowed her eyes and they darted back and forth, almost suspiciously.

"... That Terra might've had something to do with it...?" he whispered. He then realized that the onscreen photos looked familiar. "Waitaminute... That lousy science jerk's been taking PICTURES of all of us! That was from when we went to the carnival for team-bonding!"

"I've been exposed!" Cherry gasped, covering herself suddenly.

"Good thing that creep bit the big one..." Bat-Mite scoffed. "Now he's rotting in Hell."

"Yeah, that's true..." Cherry replied as she settled down then. "Even if I was nearly there sometime last year myself."

"Eh, it was three years, but whatever." Bat-Mite shrugged.


Later, in the kitchen, Gar, Raven, Atticus, Yang, Todd, Yin, Jaime, and Terra were eating the leftover party cake when Nightwing and Starfire entered.

"Everyone, Starfire has an announcement regarding tonight's events." Nightwing explained.

"Oh, good," Atticus smiled. "Hit us with your best shot, Starfire."

"Oh, I do not wish to harm you, Atticus." Starfire frowned.

"You won't..." Atticus muttered slightly, but then smiled again.

"With what we discovered tonight, we all need to be extra vigilant," Starfire replied. "We cannot take any chances."

Gar stood up. "Are you kidding me? It's Kevin Smith!"

"He was Silent Bob in 'Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back'!" Yang added. "Best movie ever... Unlike the Killing Joke adaptation..."

"I didn't say don't do what you have planned, but keep your eyes and Com lines open at all times," Starfire replied. "I'm feeling, whatever Blood is planning, tonight is just a prelude."

Terra looked away from that almost as if she felt some guilt.

"Don't worry, Starfire, we'll get through this." Atticus promised.

"Yeah!" Yin agreed. "It takes a LOT to get one over on us!"

"I'm so glad to hear that from all of you." Starfire approved.

Terra looked aside, seeming quite conflicted.

Later, she was on the sand, skipping stones.

"Go talk to her." Atticus suggested to Gar.

Gar mentally braced himself, then went over to Terra...in frog form. "Sorry your party got interrupted..." he apologized.

"That's the way it goes." Terra replied softly.

"Don't let all that talk from earlier shake ya... You know I got your back." Gar replied.

"It's other stuff." Terra replied.

"Like what?" Gar asked, turning into a rabbit. "I'm all ears~"

Terra smiled at that, before Gar turned back into human form.

"You have a pretty smile..." Gar commented.

Terra smiled, but then instantly frowned. "Do you know how I became an orphan?"

"Uh... Your parents died?" Gar asked like it was obvious.

"No," Terra replied. "After I got powers, they freaked. Thought I was possessed or something."

"I'm sorry." Gar shook his head to that as that sounded depressing.

"Don't be... I don't need your pity." Terra retorted, chucking a stone halfway across the ocean.

"It can be a bond, you know?" Gar said to her after a moment. "Everyone on the team's had it rough."

"I can tell Princess Sparkle Thong knows all about eating from a dumpster." Terra huffed.

"Kori is a refugee being stalked by her homicidal sister." Gar clarified.

"Jaime has a family that loves him." Terra countered.

"And because of the bug, odds are he'll never see them face-to-face ever again." Gar replied.

"Cherry and Atticus are like siblings." Terra shrugged.

"That may be, but Atticus doesn't know what happened to his parents," Gar said. "Cherry was often an outsider, but she considers him closer to her than any one else, except for maybe Lionel."

"The little guy? He looks like he hasn't got a worry in the world." Terra scoffed.

"He was exiled from his own home because everyone found him to be annoying," Gar replied. "I think pain is what makes a hero... It's like pressure that either forms a diamond, or grinds you into dust..."

"But what about you, Chuckles?" Terra soon asked. "Aside from an unhealthy online presence, you're normal."

Gar held out his hand and then pointed to himself to emphasize his skin color.

"Yeah, you're green. You wouldn't change it if you could," Terra replied to that. "You like the attention. Besides, it looks okay on you."

Gar soon smiled to that as that seemed to mean a lot to him, and she soon smiled back until the two suddenly leaned together for a kiss with each other.

"Finally." Atticus whispered to himself.

Gar glanced at her after pulling away. "Wow... You didn't kill me."

"This time," Terra smiled. "Don't get used to it... Jerk..."

Atticus smiled as he secretly watched them. Gar soon cheered out of excitement, turning into a gorilla as he pounded his chest, and then turned into a wolf and howled out of victory as this had to be the happiest day of his young life. He even turned into a bird and happily flew around the skies in excitement. Terra hid a small smile as she watched as Gar celebrated himself.

"WHOA! Looks like Gar's ready to flip, flap & fly!" Lionel commented.

"Don't care if I die~" Cherry sang to that.

"Um... Okay..." Lionel shrugged, as Terra walked off.
